Quickstart
Wallet, Robinhood Chain, signature, privacy mode, first message.
The app runs as a closed beta.
Bring a wallet and some credits. Logging in asks for no account, no email and no gas.
It starts with a wallet
| Where | What you can use |
|---|---|
| Desktop browser | Extension wallets that announce themselves to sites (EIP-6963): MetaMask, Rabby, OKX Wallet, Phantom, the Coinbase Wallet extension and others. Older ones exposing only window.ethereum are fine |
| Coinbase Wallet | Regular account (EOA) only, no Coinbase smart wallet |
| Phone | Load angerona.chat in the browser inside your wallet app, such as MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet or Trust Wallet. A phone browser with no wallet gets links that jump into the wallet app |
Smart-contract wallets (Safe, smart accounts) do log in, thanks to ERC-1271 and ERC-6492 verification. Their key for encrypted history can differ between sessions, though, leaving old chats shut. A regular wallet (EOA) is the safe bet. See Data handling.
Your wallet needs Robinhood Chain
Robinhood Chain is named in the sign-in message, so your wallet should know it. Normally the app prompts your wallet to add it or switch over.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Network name | Robinhood Chain |
| Currency symbol | ETH |
Login takes no ETH. Spend it on Robinhood Chain only for real transactions, like filling your Main balance or buying $ANGERONA. Robinhood's documentation covers bridging funds across.
Signing in is free and moves nothing
- Press Connect wallet and select yours.
- A sign-in message (SIWE, EIP-4361) pops up. Confirm that the page is
https://angerona.chatand that the text opens withangerona.chat wants you to sign in with your Ethereum account. - Sign. There is no fee and no transaction, and your funds can't move.
That signature proves ownership and unlocks spending on chat, images and video. It opens a 24-hour session storing just your wallet address, and after that you sign again.
A second free signature may follow, to open your encrypted chat history. The key it produces stays inside your browser.
Credits pay for usage
A credit equals a dollar, and only usage costs anything.
- Main balance: make one plain transfer of ETH or USDG to the Angerona treasury on Robinhood Chain. No sign-in, approval or signature is involved. After confirmation the sending wallet is credited in seconds. The app files the transaction, or you paste its hash. This money has no expiry and reaches all models in both modes, images and video too. See Top up.
- Bonus balance: holders of $ANGERONA receive $0.50 to $3.00 free per day by tier. It's used first, it refreshes at 00:00 UTC, and leftovers don't carry over.
Pick the mode that fits the question
| Mode | Choose it when |
|---|---|
| Anonymous | Any model will do, Claude, GPT, image and video models included. The provider reads the prompt and has no idea who wrote it |
| TEE | The words are the secret. Each message is encrypted for an attested enclave alone |
With credits, both modes and all models are open. Privacy modes compares them.
Presets are the quick way to pick a model
- Fast: quick replies
- Smart: the daily driver
- Top: the mode's strongest model. In TEE, the strongest that passes attestation right now
- Uncensored: refuses less
- Vision: reads images, in Anonymous only, as TEE handles text alone
All models lists the rest. See Models.
TEE models that pass show a TEE badge, granted only after attestation succeeds in your browser. See Attestation.
Ask, and pay for what the answer used
Send your message and the reply streams back. The bill follows real usage:
- TEE: the model's official list price, exactly.
- Anonymous: a secondary compute market serves these, normally under the official list price. The cheapest available offer for the model goes first, and you owe that real price, capped at the official list price.
- Images and video: the listed price.
Both balances sit in the header, and Bonus drains before Main.
Refused for low credits? Reduce the answer length, change model, top up or wait for the daily refresh.
Most problems have a quick fix
| What appears | The fix |
|---|---|
| Wrong network | Move your wallet to Robinhood Chain |
| Signature rejected, sign-in fails | Repeat it. Each sign-in message is single-use and dies after a few minutes |
| "Session expired" | Your 24 hours ran out. Log in again |
| Fresh purchase, tier still 0 | The lowest balance across 24 hours counts, so a buy joins at the first full hour 24 hours after landing. See Tiers. Main credits work during the wait |
| Tier 0 marked "pending" | Chain history was unreadable. Give it a minute and retry |
| "Not enough credits" | The worst-case cost is held up front. See Credits |
| Model "unavailable" | It can't be reached at this moment, and there's no charge. Choose another |
